Chapter 1Overview
1-1.Special Features
The SH11 Series uses a high precision interpolation circuit to achieve an insertion error
of 0.1 µm or less within a scale engraving pitch of 16 µm.
The output signal is a 5 V line driver, so it can be connected directly to a numerical
controller to provide position feedback.
Installation is easy for this unit-type scale. For scales with a measuring length of
520 mm (20.47 in) or more, use standard accessory support bracket A or B to increase
the rigidity at the intermediate position.
Wide Variation
Twenty measuring lengths are available in the range of 70 to 1,240 mm (2.76 to 48.82
in).
Choose the optimum scale length to match the required stroke.
High Precision
The scale precision is as follows.
• Measuring length70 to 620:± 2 µm
• Measuring length670 to 1240: ± 3 µm
Excellent Resistance to Working Environment
The detector component employs a large-area optical exchange device using Moiré
interference fringes. Employing our unique stable Moiré detection system, the effects of
dust can be minimized and reading errors reduced.
Durable Construction
The detector component employs sturdy, precision die-cast aluminum, making it
possible to obtain stable Moiré fringes. A bearing guide system enables maintenance
of ideal traveling conditions.
Minimum Wiring
Position detection signals are provided for only the following three pairs.
• Position signal.............. A phase, A phase, B phase, B phase
• Zero point signal .......... Z phase, Z phase
Each of these employs the noise-resistant line-driver method.
Simple Maintenance
The detector component is designed to be replaceable, so if a problem occurs, the
scanning unit can be speedily replaced and normal operation resumed.
3. A support bracket or brackets are required for scales with
a measuring length of 520 mm (20.47 in) or more.
4. A type or B type support brackets can be selected.
5. The zero point signal is output when the on the scale
is approximately aligned with the on the scanning unit.
6. If the scale is moved beyond its measuring length, it will
)
be damaged. Therefore, take steps to ensure that the
stroke of the machine ends 10 mm (0.394 in) or more to
the inside of both ends of the measuring length.
Installing the product incorrectly may shorten its life or affect its performance.
Design the installation surface and mounting bracket in accordance with the
checkpoints given below.
Selecting the Mounting Location
To obtain full performance from the scale unit, select a mounting location that satisfies
the following criteria:
• Not subject to vibration or dust
• As close as possible to the machine’s cutting tool to guarantee machining accuracy
• A place that ensures ease of scale unit maintenance
• A place that enables smooth installation
Checking the Measuring Length
Select a scale with a measuring length that extends at least 10 mm (0.394 in) from both
ends of the machine’s maximum stroke. If there is a possibility that the machine might
exceed the scale measuring length, install mechanical stoppers or otherwise restrict
the machine’s range of movement.

the cables or connectors.
2-3-1.Installing the Scale Unit
1.Checking the Flatness of the Scale Unit Installation Surface
• Check that the installation surface of the scale unit is finished along its entire length
to finish symbol 6.3S or better, and check that it has a flatness of 0.05 mm
(0.002 in)/M (where M is the machine guide’s length).
2.Installing the Support Bracket to the Scale
• A support bracket or brackets are supplied with scales which have a measuring
length of 520 mm (20.47 in) or more.
• Fixing nuts for the support brackets are inserted in the slit on the top face of the
scale. Install the support bracket or brackets using hexagonal socket head cap
screws (M3×6). Using a torque wrench, tighten to a torque of 1.5 N•m.
• Position the support bracket at the center of the scale. For scales with a measuring
length of 1020 mm (40.16 in) or more, position the support brackets so that the scale
is divided into equal parts.
• Either support bracket A or B can be selected.

2-3-2.Securing the Scanning Unit to the Mounting Bracket
When mounting the scanning unit into the mounting bracket, always make sure both
slider holders L and R are attached.
If slider holders L and R become detached, remount them.
When installing slider holders L and R for the first time, insert them into the scale
groove from the ends of the scale.
Inserting slider holders L and R into the scanning unit will determine the relative
positions of the scale and scanning unit.
Twisting the scanning unit while the slider holders are not in use may dislodge the
scanning unit dust seal from the dust seal guide groove. If the dust seal becomes
dislodged, it can be refitted without any problems. However, be careful not to dislodge
it during the installation work.
1.Checking Slider Holders L and R
• Check to make sure slider holders L and R are attached. If they have become
detached, remount them.
2-8

2.Checking for Installation Errors
• The mounting tolerance for the positions and height of the scale unit and scanning
unit is ±0.3 mm (0.012 in). If there is a gap between the scanning unit and the
mounting bracket, adjust with spacers or similar items. If the mounting bracket is too
high, switch to a lower mounting bracket.
3.Securing the Scanning Unit
• With the scanning unit supported by slider holders L and R, slide it into the
installation position and secure it in place with the hexagonal socket head cap
screws (M4×22). Using a torque wrench, tighten to a torque of 2 N•m.

2-3-4.Cable Management
Managing Cables
• Manage cables so that they do not hinder machine operations or become entangled.
Handle cables carefully, as forceful pulling or repeated bending may damage them.
• The connector of the head cable has been waterproofed, but ensure that it is fitted in
a location where it is not exposed to chips or cutting fluid.
Minimum Cable Bending Radius
• Ensure that cables are arranged so that their bending radius tolerances are not
exceeded.
• The cable bending radii are as follows:
Head Cable
When the cable does not move during use ... Bending radius: 30 mm (1.18 in) or more
When the cable moves during use ................ Repeated bending not permitted
Connecting Cable
(Secure with a bending radius of 30 mm
(1.18 in) or more.)
When the cable does not move during use ... Bending radius: 50 mm (1.969 in) or more
When the cable moves during use ................ Bending radius: 100 mm (3.937 in) or more
Securing Cables
• Secure the head cable with cable clamps or similar items near the outlet. Also,
secure the connecting cable firmly so that it does not hinder machine operations or
become entangled.
Protecting the Connecting Cable Polarity Switch
• A polarity switch is attached to the connector that leads to the control unit. This
switch can be reversed to suit the reading direction of the scale.
Note
This switch can be operated during use, but doing so is very dangerous, as this reverses the
feedback signal.
Attach a protective cover to the polarity switch on the connector that leads to the control unit so
that it cannot be operated accidentally.

2-3-5.Precautions when the Scanning Unit is Connected to a Movable Component
Mounting the scale unit to a movable part and the scanning unit to a fixed part is ideal,
but if the reverse is necessary for structural reasons, the following points should be
noted:
Managing the Head Cable
• Secure the head cable and allow the connecting cable to bend.
• Secure the largest bending radius possible for the head cable.
• The allowable bending radius for the head cable is 30 mm (1.18 in) or more.
Managing the Connecting Cable
• Secure the connecting cable firmly so that it does not hinder machine operations or
become entangled. The cable getting caught on the operator or objects in the vicinity
presents a hazard. Furthermore, even if it does not appear so from the outside, the
internal core wire may be severed.
• The allowable bending radius of the connecting cable is 100 mm (3.937 in) or more.
The cable wires may be severed if subjected to repeated bending at radii smaller
than this.
Extending the Connecting Cable
• Do not extend the connecting cable to a length of more than 30 m (1181.10 in).

2-5.Air Purge
The scale bracket is fitted with standard M5 tap holes on both sides to allow air intake.
If the scale unit is to be used in the environments listed below, harmful effects can be
reduced by blowing clean air into the unit.
• Dusty locations
• Highly humid locations
• Locations where changes in temperature and humidity give rise to condensation
As the efficacy of introducing air depends on the service conditions, do so only after
verifying the effectiveness.
Air Tubing Route and Equipment Configuration
• Take into consideration the tubing route and other factors when choosing between
the left and right air intake ports.
Note that the air intake ports are capped with M5×5 hexagonal socket head locking
screws, which should be removed before use.
• Prepare the equipment and tubing as shown in the figure below to allow air to be
introduced into the scale unit.
• The air supply unit and fittings should be provided by the customer.
The tables below provide standard equipment specifications and component parts
(manufacturers) for reference.

Proof pressure1.5 MPa
Maximum service pressure1020 kPa

Service fluidAir
Ambient temperature and service fluid temperature–5 to +60°C (33 to 140°F)
Ensure a tube bending radius of 15 mm (0.59 in) or more, and do not allow the tube to
bend sharply. Also, when installing tubes in parallel in electrical, hydraulic or other
ducts, make sure that the movement of the duct does not cause the tube to collapse.
Tube Length
To match the air intake pressure into each scale unit, always ensure that the tubes from
the air supply unit distributors to the intake ports are the same length.
Pressure-Reducing Valve Set Pressure and Tube Length
If the intake air pressure into each scale unit is around 20±10 kPa, the humidity of the
air in the scale unit can be kept low. However, the length of the tube precludes the use
of the pressure-reducing valve to obtain an intake air pressure of 20±10 kPa.
Determine the set pressure for the pressure-reducing valve with reference to the
diagram below, “Pressure-Reducing Valve Set Pressure and Tube Length”.

Pressure-Reducing Valve Set Pressure and Tube Length
This diagram shows the relationship between the set pressure for the pressurereducing valve and the tube length for an intake air pressure of 20 kPa.
Tube length here means the length from the distributor of the air supply unit to the
intake port of the scale unit.
When the intake air pressure is 20 kPa, the amount of air consumed for each unit is
2-16
approximately 30 Nr/min.
Flushing the Tubing
Using the air source, flush the air supply unit connection and the inlet portion leading
into the scale. This cleans the tubing, prevents debris from getting caught in the
machinery, and also serves as a check for the tubing.
Air Pressure Source
When using a compressor as the air pressure source, select an appropriate
compressor in consideration of the volume of air to be consumed (approx. 30 Nr/min.
per unit). The following diagram, “Delivery Capacity and Rated Output”, may provide
some assistance in choosing the compressor, but note that specifications vary between
different models.

Chapter 3Maintenance
3-1.Start-up Inspection
Checking for Open Circuits
The scanning unit is normally connected to the control unit by a connecting cable
through the cable (head cable) from the scanning unit. Both the head cable and
connecting cable must be checked if there is an open circuit. Shake the movable parts
of the head cable and connecting cable and confirm that the open circuit alarm is not
displayed on the control unit. If it is, the severed cable unit must be repaired. It is
extremely dangerous to continue operations without repairing the cable; immediately
stop the machine and contact your Sony Manufacturing Systems Corporation
distributor.
While checking the head cable, pay close attention to the connection with the scanning
unit and the junction connector. Also, when using a conduit connecting cable, check
very carefully as there may be open circuits caused by microscopic chips.
Checking for Dust Lip Wear
Look at the underside of the scale, and check to see if the edge of the dust lip is worn.
If it is, the scale glass and inside detector part must be cleaned and the dust lip
replaced. Contact your Sony Manufacturing Systems Corporation distributor.
Checking for Odd Noises
Slowly move the machine and listen to see if any odd noises occur. If so, the scale main
body and scanning unit may be in contact. Continuing operation in this condition may
lead to major breakdowns, so stop the machine immediately and contact your Sony
Manufacturing Systems Corporation distributor.
Strictly Enforce Cleaning
Ensure that chips are cleaned up before starting work and at the end of work each day
to prevent them from building up around the scale. Otherwise, chip buildup may prevent
the scale from sliding and cause breakdowns. Avoid using air guns or similardevices for cleaning, because while the traveling part of the scale unit is sealed, it is
not completely sealed off for structural reasons. Use of an air gun may cause chips or
other debris to penetrate into the scale and cause breakdowns.
3-2.Regular Inspections
Presence of Condensation
If mist, condensation, dust or coolant (water-miscible cutting fluid) are present on the
dust lip of the scale unit, strengthen the cover and supply air to the unit.

Whether or not to use a conduit connecting cable is specified by the shape of the
terminal that leads to the control unit.
When used in an environment where there is a concern that the cable segment might
be damaged, choose a conduit cable.
The connector has a dust-proof, drip-proof construction (except for the connector that
leads to the control unit).
The connector that leads to the control unit is fitted with a polarity switch, which can be
used to reverse the scale reading direction. This switch can be operated during use, but
doing so is extremely dangerous as it reverses the feedback signal. Attach a cover or
similar device to the polarity switch on the connector that leads to the control unit to
prevent against accidental operation.

Precautions When Using the Connecting Cable
• Protecting the Connecting Cable Polarity Switch
A polarity switch is attached to the connector which leads to the control unit. This
switch can be reversed to suit the reading direction of the scale.
Note
This switch can be operated during use, but doing so is very dangerous, as this reverses the
feedback signal.
Attach a protective cover to the polarity switch on the connector that leads to the control unit so
that it cannot be operated accidentally.
• Minimum Connecting Cable Bending Radius
The connecting cable bending radii are as follows:
When the cable does not move during use ...... Bending radius: 50 mm (1.97 in) or more
When the cable moves during use .................. Bending radius: 100 mm (3.94 in) or more
• Extending the Connecting Cable
Do not extend the connecting cable to a length of more than 30 m (1181.1 in).
